To be honest, I'm spending $350 / $400 on a tranny .. I don't really have any intentions on modifying the drivetrain.

Some basic bolt ons with weight reduction will be fine by me.

How's your car coming along Sam? Why are you selling the turbo kit :\.

They are worth it. I have only the UR crank pulley and it is instant unlocked power.

As far as I've read, most Hondas get good gains for their motors.

@Joe:

You'll probably get 3-5whp at best, but your throttle response will be sex on the beach and your revs will climb faster.

Don't think of pulleys adding power really, it's technically unlocking them lol.
